Trilly also said to “move on to other candidates”

Yeah, in the same sentence he mentioned now this is confusing to him as well. I took it as more of a “maybe it happens but probably best not to get your hopes up any more”. Nothing definitive. When he starts getting wind of other candidates, you’ll know it’s done with Brad. I’m moving on. Enough with Brad Stevens. He doesn’t want us, fine. Enjoy the Dunkin, Brad.

I know so many insiders said that Quinn Buckner forced Woody on Dolson, but they also said that Stevens was happening.

I believe nothing about the Quinn story too.

Dolson hired Woody.  He better get this one right or he's done in my eyes

That's been reported by reputable IU people other than here though. Otherwise I would agree.

I’m not ignoring football, but he’s not hiring a football coach. Everything basketball-related has been a disaster during his tenure. He’s got good PR with the “I wasn’t allowed to do my job” stuff, but at the end of the day, he’s the AD. The buck stops with him. The “they didn’t let me do my job” stuff just tells me he’s a yes men who’s afraid to make waves. 

Exactly.  He's got an amazing PR crew and lots of message board stans who tell us how great he is and nothing is his fault. So he HAS to get this hire right

What’s everyone think about Steve Alford? I think he’s gettable.

Sorry, it’s not easy sifting through all these posts.  I was just hoping it was new info!  Sorry

….my guess is a couple things.

1. Real smoke screen 

2. Chris, AP, Jerry are all trying to find out what is really happening and post some sort of news later on. (Crickets right now)

3. They have been told by their sources to “shut up” and say nothing more because things were getting out too much, too soon.

4. If 3 is true, they may be telling them to play the smokescreen card too so it doesn’t get out of hand. (Crickets right now)

5. Chris, Jerry and AP were all fed smokescreens early on to think it’s Brad and really someone else.

GO IU!

 

Haha yes and let’s give Chris some grace since he did mention his Valentine’s Day date is the IU game with his wife :-)

We’ve been through this.  I don’t get why people think a new AD was going to overrule the Chairman of the Board of Trustees and our biggest donor.  They can stop the AD from hiring who he wants and cut off our NIL/donations.  Scott could have made a wave… and they would have ended his career and still hired Woody.

He lived to fight another day and now he has power.  This hire is all on him and he should get all the blame or credit.

He’s also for-gettable.  Pass :)

[coonhounds]

You’ve been here longer than me and honestly should know better than to believe the Stevens rumors at this point.

Yes you are right! I have to believe i have nothing left! Put me in the looney bin. I will say Chris and others have been right on stuff. I just don't want people chastised for sharing info.

Fife also said he didn’t think Dolson had final say in hiring Woodson.   That had been reported by various outlets and people just not message board insiders.
